RONNIE O’SULLIVAN reckons snooker’s Holy Trinity will be sorely missed when they’re gone – much like Roger Federer, Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic in tennis.

O’Sullivan is part of the iconic ‘Class of 92’ along with John Higgins and Mark Williams. The trio are all in their 30th season on tour and between them they have won 13 world crowns and an astonishing 159 tour titles.
